The Heart Wants What it Wants (Sequel to ILAC)

Chapter 36

Oscar's POV 

Thursday, February 4th.

These past few days have been great. I was actually excited since Jacky is coming in less than six days. I have been trying to plan out what we will do in those days. All I know is that I want to do something special for her on Valentine's day. I know that Neymar and Jacky aren't together anymore so maybe I have a chance. Even if I didn't it was still worth a shot. I just want to tell her that I am still in love with her. Yes, she is dated Neymar but I don't really care. All I know is that I want her. She is my first love and I will always fight for her. Willian knows that she is coming and so does Eden since they know who she is. I don't think the others know her. Training ended quick today. I was in the locker room taking a shower and getting dressed. That's when Willan walked over to me. 

Willian: You know it wouldn't have been great if we were with Neymar tomorrow. 

Oscar: It would have been great, but we can't. 

Willian: Who said we couldn't?

Oscar: We have Saturday and a game Sunday.

WIllian: Listen, today we are getting on flight to Barcelona and we will be back here by tomorrow at 2 am. 

Oscar: Why late?

Willian: Well, we want to enjoy much time as we can with Neymar. He doesn't know we are going so don't tell him. It's a surprise Dani and Marcelo know. 

Oscar: Wait wouldn't Cristiano have a birthday party tomorrow too? 

Willian: Yeah, well Marcelo rented a whole club to celebrate their birthday together. It's big enough where they don't have to see each. 

Oscar: Good, because then drama would go down. 

Willian: Alright, now go home and pack a bag for one day our flight leaves in a hour and a half. 

Oscar: Alright. 

Once I arrived home I grabbed my backpack and put clothes for a day. I have no clue why I decided to this. Neymar and I haven't talked in a while. The worst part is that Jacky won't even be there. Once I finished packing I heard a knock. I knew it was Willian. I grabbed my things and walked downstairs. I walked outside and called an uber. Once the uber got there we got inside and told him to drive us the airport. Once he drove us the airport I paid him and we went to where they were suppose to check us. Once we passed that we went into the plane and sat in our seats. 

Oscar: I can't believe we are doing this. 

WIllian: Well, you better believe it. 

Oscar: I do. 

WIllian: Barcelona here we come! 

James' POV 

Thursday, February 4th. 

These past few days have been well long for me. The guys are sort of mad at me mainly because I won't tell them the truth about the rehab thing. They are also mad because I didn't tell them I was home when I got there. I wasn't going to play for about a month. I didn't want to go to rehab, but Cristiano and Marcelo keep telling me I should go back. I don't really see a reason for me to go back. There is nothing wrong with me. I walked over to the fridge and grabbed a beer, opening it. I sat back down and turned on the TV. Right when I turned on the TV there was a knock on the door. I sighed and got up and answered it. I saw that it was Cristiano alone. I let him in and we walked to my living room. 

Cristiano: Alright, James now I want you to tell me what happened on Sunday. There isn't anyone here. 

James: I've told you the truth many times. I just made myself look like a damn visitor and I walked out. 

Cristiano: I am not that stupid. Why would you have scars of any sort or need stitches. 

James: Alright, fine you want the truth you'll get it. (he takes a sip from his beer) 

Cristiano: Tell me.

James: All I did was jumped out the window! Nothing serious.

Cristiano: Nothing serious?! Are you freaking kidding me?! What the hell was going inside your brain when you did that?! You could have died you know that right?

James: I just wanted to get out of there I hated being in there. I had nothing wrong with me! All I did was drugs for a week I wasn't addicted they were just my escape. 

Cristiano: James, if we didn't call the damn hospital then who knows by now you'll still be doing drugs. 

James: You really think I would have been doing that for a long time? I wouldn't because I knew it was bad for you. I'm not an idiot you know! I have a brain that works perfectly fine!

Cristiano: It doesn't seem like it works well. I mean you jumped out of the window! 

James: So what?! I jumped out the damn window, get over it happened it's in the past I'm still alive! 

Cristiano: What if you wouldn't have made it?!

James: It's the past all you need to care about is the present and the future. The past is behind us. Get over the fact that I jumped out the window. Let me go on with my life. 

Cristiano: I can't let you go on with your life. I want to know what's going on with you. 

James: There is nothing wrong with me I'm perfectly normal. 

Cristiano: You're not, you aren't the same James we knew a month ago. 

James: I am still the same James. If you don't believe I'm same James, well all I have to say is get over it I really don't care if you think I'm the same James. I don't care what anyone thinks of me. 

Cristiano: The James I knew wasn't filled with anger or sadness. He would always joke around and be happy and annoying. 

James: Just get out of my house would you. 

Cristiano: Why? All I want to show you is that I am here for you. I know you are upset about something. No one knows why, you can't bottle up your feelings inside. 

James: I said get out! 

Cristiano: Alright, fine. Well I hope you'll make it to my birthday party tomorrow. Marcelo will send you the information. (he walks out of James' house) 

I sighed as we walked out of my house. He was right, to be honest I don't even recognize myself. I'm not the same James I was a month ago. I'm not happy anymore I'm sad. I don't talk a lot anymore, because most of the time I'm lost in my thoughts. I don't know who I am anymore. Who is James Rodriguez? I have no idea.

Will James ever go back to normal? Hope you enjoyed the story. What do you think about Messi retiring from international football? What do you think about the other 7 players that are rumor to be retiring along with Messi?
